  1. 1 Place mayocoba beans in a large bowl with enough cool water to cover by several inches; soak 8 hours to overnight.
  2. 2 Drain beans; rinse thoroughly. Transfer beans to a large stockpot; add enough water to cover beans by several inches. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer until beans are soft in centers, about 90 minutes.
  3. 3 Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.

Remove from heat; set aside.

  5. 5 Add ham to the same skillet; cook in drippings until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the plate with bacon to drain using a slotted spoon.
  6. 6 Stir tomato mixture, bacon, ham, beer, jalapeños, cilantro, and bouillon granules into cooked beans; season with sea salt. Bring mixture to a simmer; cook until beans are completely softened, about 30 minutes.
